Meet the team
Tasha Pepos, RDN, LN
Whether you’re here because you want to uplevel your health, you want to prevent chronic health conditions from worsening or happening in the first place, or you are feeling hopeless… I am SO glad you’re here.
Just like you, I’ve been a victim of our broken healthcare system. The only solutions were steroids, creams, and meds. After suffering with chronic health conditions for the first 18 years of my life and being diagnosed with a disease that could lead to blindness, I found functional wellness. For the first time in my life, my body was beginning to heal and I realized how terrible I actually felt my ENTIRE life. Oftentimes, we get used to feeling the way we feel… maybe even accept it. I’m here to tell you that you DO NOT have to accept it. You can feel optimized for the rest of your life! How do you want to show up as a parent, grandparent, entrepreneur, spouse, businessman/woman, employer, or retiree? Can we show up as the best version of ourselves, living our purpose, if we don’t have our health?
There is a reason your body isn’t feeling well. There’s a reason you’re experiencing all these different symptoms. Your body is trying to tell you something! The longer we ignore these signs the worse our health concerns will become. I’m here to offer you something different that will actually help you get to the root cause of your body’s dysfunction using a whole-body systems approach and lifestyle medicine to aid in your body’s beautiful ability to repair and heal.
I’m a Montana native with military roots. I’ve experienced life around the globe. I enjoy hiking, kayaking, traveling, eating, cooking, camping, writing, and spending time with people I love. My passion since 18 years old was to have my own private practice and clinic as a functional nutrition dietitian. I graduated from the University of Idaho with a Bachelor of Science in Food and Nutrition – Dietetics. In my practice, it isn’t about shortcuts and quick fixes, but working with you to discover what makes you feel optimized. We empower you through education and helping you find what works best for YOU. We focus on mindset, lifestyle, and creating new habits because THIS will allow you to live the life you’ve always envisioned. I’m passionate about working with people throughout the life cycle because in my short 30 years of life, I’ve been the infant and child suffering. In my early 20’s, I felt like I was 90. And maybe just like you, I’ve struggled with my health journey which is why I created a system that will not only restore your faith and hope, but will help you feel better than you ever thought possible.
Please check out our event page for upcoming free health seminars, which is our first step to getting to know each other. I cannot wait to meet you!
Lanette Hetrick, MS, MCHC
Committed and deeming it an honor, Lanette Hetrick, MS, MCHC, is dedicated to assisting individuals in reclaiming their health and vitality at any age through personalized nutrition and lifestyle strategies. Lanette’s journey began over 30 years ago when her infant daughter faced numerous health challenges with no clear explanations, resulting in 18 years of suffering and reliance on a multitude of medications. Approaching the brink of blindness, Lanette, in her desperation, discovered a program that diverged from conventional approaches. This unique program educated her daughter on the fundamental pillars of health, resulting in the reversal of lifelong health issues and the avoidance of blindness. Astonished by the transformative power of providing the body with what it needs, Lanette regretfully reflected on the possibility of sparing her daughter’s suffering if she had acquired this knowledge earlier.
As a parent who empathetically endured the journey alongside her child, Lanette realized the pervasive lack of awareness among people about vital health information, akin to her past ignorance. Hence, her passion and life’s mission now revolve around coaching others at their current stage of understanding. Lanette aims to empower individuals to end their suffering, enhance their health, and embrace genuine vitality, irrespective of age.
Lanette is a Master Certified Health Coach with specializations in Adults & Seniors, Families, and Pre/Post Pregnancy, accredited by the Dr. Sears Wellness Institute. Furthermore, she obtained a master’s degree in counseling from Webster University in 2006. Leveraging evidence-based tools, strategies, and personalized wellness and lifestyle plans developed by Institute of Empowered Health, Lanette guides clients towards achieving optimal health and wellness. She invites others to connect, allowing them to explore how she can contribute to their goals on the path to healing and wellness!
